Give Back My Heart

I'm a traveling man don't tie me down

There's just too much living going all around

A man he's got to see what he can see

I love the road and i love the air

And i don't worry hell i never care

I love my women sometimes they love me

But i was got one day i still don't know how

I didn't even like that town

This fellow said stranger why don't you just go on home

And i said man that's where i'm headed to

And you couldn't stop me if you knew what to do

And i left and i planned to go alone

But the road was long and home was far

So i stopped off at this little cowboy-looking bar

I walked on through the door and she just smiled

In a long pony tail and a pretty white dress

She said hi bull riders do it best

I said oh my god what's your name

My name's lyle

And i said ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman

Take your boots and walk out of my life

Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman

I can't be no cowgirl paradise

I looked at her and she looked at me

And i looked back and she looked back

And we went out together for a walk

Her eyes were bright just like the stars

But she drove a pickup said she hated cars

But loved to ride around out after dark

And i said ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman

Take your boots and walk out of my life

Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman

I can't be no cowgirl paradise

I told her redneckness has got to be a disease

You catch it on your fingers and it just crawls right up your sleeves

Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman

I can't be no cowgirl paradise

Well how she did it i'll never know

But it's been maybe 20 years or so

And she cooks the supper and i try to pay the rent

But i'm a traveling man don't tie me down

There's just too much living go all around

But i can't figure out quite where it went

Then i think ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman

Take your boots and walk out of my life

Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman

I can't be no cowgirl paradise
